That Guy From Instagram Is Suing Shaq, Waka Flocka and Trey Burke For (Not Enough) Money

No this isn’t another fake story found on Facebook. A guy teased on Instagram by Dr. Shaquille Rashaun O’Neal, Ed.D, Waka Flocka and Trey Burke for his peculiar looks is suing all three of those guys for $25,000.

Jahmel Binion posted a selfie back in April which Shaq and Waka eventually reposted with mean-spirited captions … clearly making fun of his face.

As we reported … once Shaq found out about Jahmel’s condition he took down the post, got in touch with Jahmel and apologized. He tweeted … “Made a new friend today when I called and apologized to Jahmel Binion. Great dude. #alwayslearning #MYBADCUZ.”

Jahmel has now filed a defamation suit against Shaq, Waka, and Utah Jazz guard Trey Burke — who allegedly threw in his own insults over social media. The lawsuit points out that more than 8.4 million people saw the insults.

Along with defamation, Binion is suing for intentional infliction of emotional distress, invasion of privacy and general negligence.

I’d like to think I’m going to walk away from this story a better person, but I know I won’t. I’ll be back on Instagram, laughing, liking and sharing with no memories of Binion’s ordeal. I’m a product of the Internet.

the bill shows that his true spirit aint in it just for the cash, giving his conditions most of this would get eaten up in court costs and medical bills…this shouldnt even reach a court, if it were me I would give him 10x the amount and make sure everyone else that made fun of him in the same position did the same.

Shaq and others just had to know better than this. This is very obvious he had some condition and given America is outraged by erything how did shaq even go thru wit this.
They could flip this right quick and become national spokesmen for whatever this kid suffers from if they was smart.

America is so pussified now and there’s NO excuse!! What happened to talk is cheap? People are gonna talk regardless so we should just sue or protest everyone and everything that makes us feel bad or uncomfortable?? But inequality, poverty and murder and incarceration rates that’s just life right? but Donald sterling supposed to lose his ball team because he said he don’t like niggas? I’m all for agreeing to disagree but y’all bitches gotta chill!

Lol nigga know damn well he don’t need to be taking fuckin selfies bruh. Maybe he went low with the amount of money because if he went higher he could’ve ended up with nothing, so why not get atleast 75k

@Troy people can control what they post to the internet though. It’s not a law that you have to have Instagram and post shit online. A majority of my friends don’t even have Instagram and they don’t have a disorder.

There’s no way this holds up in court and quite frankly probably won’t even make it to court. The only way this guy gets any money from this is from donations or if Shaq and others decided to just settle it out of court and save a minor headache.

Either way…I guarantee next week that you are not going to care so quit giving out the false perception of actually caring.

I’m trying to come up. We as TSS need to find something to be fake upset about and cash out. Anybody got any pre-existing debilitating conditions we can extort? Or willing to make an ass of themselves for profit, a la Ice JJ Fish?

+100000
lawsuits- it’s the American way.
I was just telling somebody how nypd settles like 70% of its lawsuits simply cuz they can’t afford to go to court that much from all the lawsuits filed against them. I just pray that a smartphone is rolling when it happens.

Case is garbage. Shouldn’t have posted the picture to the internet for worldwide consumption if you were going to be all butthurt about the reaction to it.

This bullshit shouldn’t have even been “news”. I’m so sick of this soft ass shit everyday someone is offended. Disorder or not…you know the rules to Instagram or pictures online. Once it’s in cyberspace it’s fair game whether you like it or not.
